Hej Kochane Mordeczki! Najlepsza (najwygodniejsza? bezproblemowa?) aplikacja do czytania e-booków na iPada?
Książki częściowo będą spoza "księgarni" (w sensie pliki będą lokalne więc chciałbym je wrzucać na iPada np mailem czy chmurą... jakoś tak)


UWAGA - pytanie "grzecznościowe" - ja nie mam iPada, więc nie wiem jak to tam działa - to kumpel szuka czegoś takiego, więc polećcie mu coś :)

@Zenek73 @ksiazki może i tak, nie nasz biznes na czym kto czyta... Też mu mówiłem, że czytnik "zdrowszy" dla oczu, może się kiedyś zdecyduje

Drodzy ebookowicze! Pytam dla koleżanki: czy ktoś tutaj wie, jak działa abonament Legimi na Kindle? Czy kupując model z 2022, można z abonamentu w ogóle korzystać?

@podryban @ksiazki Ja też potwierdzam, tańsza wersja to 7 książek, ale nie powiedziałabym, że wszystko śmiga. Trzeba pilnować synchronizacji w okolicach okresu rozliczeniowego, zdarzało mi się synchronizować tuż po rozpoczęciu nowego okresu, a i tak wyjebywało mi np. spontanicznie wszystkie książki Legimi z czytnika i trzeba było kombinować, przelogowywać się, niewiadomoco. Nie polecam, ale chyba większość ludzi nie ma takiego pecha z tą apką jak ja ;D No i mój model jest starszy, to jest bodaj Paperwhite II albo III, więc może np. na nowszych to działa lepiej?

koval_blazej,

@kasika @podryban @ksiazki Absolutnie nie polecam użycia wtyczki DeDRM do Callibre, bo to przecież niemoralne i prawdopodobnie narusza warunki umowy!

Okay so NOW this FREE cyberpunk collection (which is so old you can see on the cover that it was only $3.50 for a paperback copy), is available as an download (FREE, I said!) as well as just opening it to read on your device. If you want it in that format, you can go there and try out the two ebook download systems it's offered on, let me know if it's not working.

BEFORE YOU WAKE and BEFORE YOU SLEEP by Adam Nevill are FREE on Kindle right now. Regular Kindle, not unlimited or anything. Just an FYI if you want some free spooky tales by a really good author. (Six stories in total.) 🤘🏼

@stina_marie @horrorbooks @horror Thank you! In Germany, only Before you wake is down to 0,00€, but the other one is just 0,99€. Great news 🥰
Btw. I am currently reading his The Ritual. I really like Adam Nevill.

@stina_marie @horrorbooks @horror They were free a while back too and I got them both and still never found time to read them. I keep saying I'm going to cut back on ARCs so I can read what I have stockpiled but I guess I'm lying to myself.

Think you're tough? If you’re not pounding frosty pints of Cock Ale, think again, wimp. 🍺

Cock Ale was a type of beer fermented with the bones and meat of a rooster, along with spices and other aromatics for a little kick. 🐔

@theotherotherone @RichStein @bookstodon @leftofseatac thanks for the info! Brooklyn had/has a pretty ginormous catalog, which was why I paid.

@theotherotherone@mastodon.world avatar

@openbuddha @RichStein @bookstodon @leftofseatac No problem. I find Queens selection for ebooks only, being remote from there, isn't the greatest. But combined with the streaming services they have-including Qello, Kanopy, and Hoopla-I can justify the cost.

@AimeeMaroux @bookstodon @smutstodon Directly from the author if at all possible. Avoid Amazon like the plague. I'd rather send the author money and find a pirate edition than give Bezos his pound of flesh.

An amazing result because overall Amazon has about 90% of the English Language ebook market worldwide.
Smashwords was setup to sell Erotic books that Amazon wouldn't publish but they (now with D2D) do all kinds and redistribute to Apple, Kobo, Barnes&Noble.
Google sells ebooks on the Playstore yet is one of the lowest sales.

@bibliolater @bookstodon @histodon @histodons @linguistics I suppose everyone thinks their hometown is unique. But New York is the only place in America that can claim a true Dutch heritage in almost every element of its society. Let’s remember who built the wall, whose namesake street is the world capital of finance. I believe the spirit of the Dutch is still alive here, and helps make NY…or at least NYC…what it is today.
